"2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA," a new feature film on the war in Ukraine from FRONTLINE PBS, the award-winning PBS documentary series housed at GBH in Boston, and The Associated Press, will make its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this January in Park City, Utah. This is the second feature film from the Oscar®-winning team behind "20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL" — Ukrainian filmmaker and Pulitzer Prize-winning AP journalist Mstyslav Chernov, producer and editor Michelle Mizner and producer Raney Aronson-Rath. In 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA, Chernov turns his lens towards Ukrainian soldiers — who they are, where they came from, and the impossible decisions they face in the trenches as they fight for every inch of land. “We are proud to work once again with The Associated Press and to offer both trustworthy reporting and a gripping, cinematic documentary. Just as we did with the feature film 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL, we hope that 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA offers audiences an on-the-ground look at the human cost of the Russia-Ukraine conflict,” says 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA producer and FRONTLINE’s editor-in-chief and executive producer, Raney Aronson-Rath.
